Top portion features the EnterpriseSplaining logo with the subheading “A Star Trek Podcast” Middle portion is an image from the Enterprise episode Bounty showing T'Pol crawling on the floor under the blue light of the decon chamber with the words “Star Trek Enterprise: Bounty. Below, there’s a section in blue with the white letters saying “What Happens in Decon Stays in Decon!” Over the image is a stamp saying “SECOND CONTACT”

Our crew is on a second contact this week to revisit the Star Trek ENT episode Bounty. Along with our guest @jarrahpenguin.bsky.social, we discussed all the writhing around T'Pol had to do in this episode under Roxann Dawson's directing, and we did a deep dive into every item on Trip's bookshelf.

(Bunny is reading under the covers.)

His name is literally "HE-MAN". The most pronoun name ever.

I constantly play this game of "are grifters really this dense, or do they just expect their audience to be?" The answer is both obviously but it still hurts my brain seeing the endless feedback loop of asshole to asshole reinforcement.

I watched "True Q" with my pals @annetheriault.bsky.social and @jarrahpenguin.bsky.social over Zoom and drew this during the episode

Today I was reminded of when I used to have recurring dreams about failing to get a selfie with Chris Hadfield in a Taco del Mar.

Tell me your weird recurring dreams!

Happy Star Trek Day! Here are some of my favourite Lower Decks drawings from the last year or so.

Sometimes!

Aww what a sweetie.

Frustrated little dude gripping a pencil saying “how do I pack this down into something I can actually share?” While swirling rainbows labeled “INFINITE POTENTIAL” float around them. Little dude frowns at a tiny grey box, exclaiming “all that work for THIS?!” Little dude shoves the grey box into another little guy’s hands; Frowning, stomping off, and saying “Here you go, I made this, it sucks.” Second little dude cracks open the box, swirling rainbows project out onto their face. Second little dude stares in awe at all the swirling rainbows now floating around them.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

Fluffy orange and white cat

At least twice daily Odo yells at us to follow him to the office, where he flops down on the floor and demands scritches. He will not accept scritches anywhere else.
